Review on Seagate BarraCuda 1TB Internal Hard Drive HDD – 2.5 Inch SATA 6 Gb/s 5400 RPM 128MB Cache for PC Laptop – Easy Packaging (ST1000LM048) by Wiktor Michalski (Li ᠌

I took it for a PC as a disk for VST, Steam, Origin libraries. Also, for temporary storage of downloads, I transferred the target folders of downloads of browsers, torrents to it. So far (pah-pah) - everything is fine. For those who are confused by the readings of some of the SMART values ​​​​of this disk: The non-zero value of the attributes "07 Seek Error Rate" and "01 Raw Read Error Rate" - on Seagate drives (unlike WD and Hitachi, for which this value is non-zero - a sign of problems), does not mean anything, but should be interpreted only taking into account the "threshold" parameter. Type in the search - "IXBT - Assessing the condition of hard drives using S. M.A. R.T." and find these parameters in the article. Very useful stuff. All over the world, these discs have a very good reputation (look at the thousands(!) of reviews on the websites of well-known foreign stores with an average rating of 4.5). With us, they are underestimated. Seagate ST1000LM048 - Great drive!
